The binding of excitons to a shallow impurity center in a semiconductor (Si:B) has been studied, and the trapping coefficient has been determined (8 X 10 ~~8 cm3/s), for the first time. A study has been made of the kinetics of the perturbation caused in the steady-state spatial distribution of excitons in a sample by nonequilibrium acoustic phonons.
